Tucker Carlson Unveils Major Political Plan
Authored by Luis Cornelio via Headline USA,
Popular podcast host Tucker Carlson has long dismissed questions about whether he would ever seek public office. But this week, he hinted at a major political move, though don’t expect to see his name on the ballot.
Speaking with the Columbia Journalism Review in an interview published Wednesday, Carlson said he plans to “help build a third party,” just months after publicly breaking with President Donald Trump over the U.S.’s involvement in the Israel-Iran war.
“I’m going to help build a third party. There should be a good-faith effort to figure out what benefits the country,” Carlson said.
During the same interview, Carlson insisted that he still has no interest in seeking public office.
“I don’t want to be a candidate,” he said.
“Before I did the Times interview, someone said to me, ‘They’re going to ask you if you’re running for president.’ I was very tempted to say ‘I am running—on the pro-patriarchy ticket.’ Just to make sure I gain no new fans.”
Carlson’s support for a third party stems from what he rebuked as bipartisan support from both Democratic and Republican parties for foreign intervention.
He accused Republicans and Democrats of being “in lockstep solidarity with each other” when it comes to foreign wars.
“That’s not a democracy,” Carlson stated. “That’s a one-party state posing as a democracy, and it needs to be broken, and there’s going to be a third party, and I’m going to do everything I can to bring that about.”
He pointed to Trump’s support for Israel’s military campaign against Iran as a “lesson.”
“If you vote for Trump and you still wind up in a regime-change war,” Carlson added, “if Chuck Schumer is strongly behind Trump’s foreign policy, which he is—then we need options, or else let’s just give up and be ruled by the most unscrupulous people. And I’m just too young to accept that. We need a third party.”
Carlson joins a growing list of political figures and pundits who have publicly argued that the country needs a viable third political party to challenge the two-party system.
Billionaire Elon Musk announced the creation of the America Party after his falling out with Trump over federal spending. While the announcement generated widespread headlines, the party has shown little visible activity since its launch.
By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!
When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy.
Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom. https://t.co/9K8AD04QQN
Others who have voiced support for a third-party alternative include former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga.; former Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va.; and former Democratic presidential contender Andrew Yang.

Two Thirds Of Americans Still Think It's A Bad Time To Buy A House
Americans looking to buy a house are currently facing conditions that make it hard for anyone but the very wealthy to afford buying a home.
Elevated home prices combined with mortgage rates that have rebounded from historic mid-pandemic lows to levels last seen in the early 2000s are causing major headaches for would-be home buyers.
To make things worse, many Americans had to dip into their savings during the past few years of high inflation, making it very hard to save for a sizeable down payment.
Add geopolitical tensions and uncertainty about the impact of AI on the labor market to the mix and renting suddenly seems like a very attractive, or possibly the only feasible option.
As Statista's Felix Richter reports, the latest results from Gallup’s annual Economy and Personal Finance poll show that current conditions have really spoiled Americans’ appetite to buy houses.

This year’s survey, conducted April 1-15, shows that two thirds of U.S. adults think that now is a bad time to buy a house.
While that marks a slight improvement from the last four years thanks in part to a slight moderation in home prices, it's still a complete reversal from pre-pandemic years, when the majority of respondents would say it was a good time to buy a house.
According to Gallup, we're currently seeing the lowest levels of confidence since the question was first asked in 1978.
Before 2022, the share of people thinking it was a good time to buy a house had never dropped below 50 percent – not even during or in the aftermath of the 2008 housing crisis.
